Challenge of the Yukon: Medicine Man

The Challenge of the Yukon! And King! And you Huskies! A wonder dog king, swiftest and strongest of Eskimo lead dogs, blazes the trail through storm and snow for Sergeant Preston, as he meets, the Challenge of the Yukon!

Sergeant Preston was typical of a small band of Northwest-mounted police, who preserved law and order in the new Northwest country, where the greed for wealth and power led to frequent violence and bloodshed. But in spite of the odds against them, Sergeant Preston and his wonder dog King met that challenge, and justice ruled triumphant.

It was early spring in Whitehorse City. The swift current of the river carried huge ice blocks down its course, and the days were getting longer. Snow still covered the ground, however, and a crowd in front of Jack de Vere's general store was waiting for the mail coming by dog team from the north. It was long overdue. Mrs. Anderson, who was stood talking to Sergeant Preston,

was particularly worried. Oh, I hope nothing has happened. I'm expecting some valuable first for my husband. He's up more hunting, isn't he? Yes, and they'd had wonderful luck. He wired me that he was sending a rare skin to me on his Neil to a pure white nose.

Well, he was lucky to buy one of those. An albino moussekin is something few people have seen. In fact, I've never seen one as long as I've been in a eukon. I wonder what accounts for albinos.

It's just lack of pigment in the skin, isn't it? Yes. It's a freak of nature. An almost every species now and then one is born from a white. Now here comes dog team with a driver!
